[Q] Screen not coming out of sleep when pressing button

I'm having temporary screen freezes when I want to take out my HTC HD2 with tytung's ICS version. When I press the buttonss they light up but the screen stays black. I can still receive phone calls and connect it to a PC, where the PC recognizes the phone. Sometimes after 20-30 minutes the wakes up like normal when I press a button.
Does anyone know the cause of this and is there a solution?
Thanks in advance.

Has your screen been unresponsive lately ?

I think your end button .. is dying?

It is not just the end button. None of the buttons give a response although they light up when I press them. Sometimes after 10 minutes or half an hour the phone is responding again.

Does this happen on every ROM? Also try flashing another kernel. It may be driver or hardware related.

It also happened with the previous ROM from Tytung. I disabled wifi for 2 days now and the problem has not occured yet. Normally it occured every day. Can it have something to do with WIFI?

i have had the same issue, and for me the only solution was to flash a new rom. if you're going to do that: try miui, i think it is very good(as soon as you've fixed all the problems with it it works perfect)

Did you try a clean install with task 29 before?

I only did the task29 the first time I started flashing a rom. After that I only changed the partition size once and updated from the zip file. What will another task29 do?
I have wifi disabled now for 4 days and haven't had the problem again. It seems that other people also have this issue, but is there no solution?

Nexus 4 Random touches on its own

Hey All,
I have nexus 4.. I was on stock rom 4.4.2 and suddenly three days back my phone started to be weird.. I see randomn touches on my phone. ( i have enable option show touches in devloper options..)
I was using art runtime..
So when i press the power button and lock the phone twice then i unlock it runs normally..
But these started to occur very frequently..
When it happens it freezes my phone or you can say touchscreen doesnt work sometimes it just freezes..
So i decided to Factory rest my phone i thought it was some apps having bug..
But it was still happening..
So I finally installed Cm11 with the installer.. I still have the issue...
Any Solutions?
It first showed when i was charging my phone but later it happened when i was not even charging ..

This has happened to me before. Call Google to begin an RMA and replace your phone if you're still under warranty

Freezing! Rebooting?

Hey guys
My edge has frozen 3 times already to the point I have to reboot holding the 3 buttons.
Anyone else have this issue?

My screen went black, had to hold the volume down and power until it rebooted. I've only had this phone for 4 hours.

Nope guys, mine running like a dream and I'm Def a power user. I'd try a couple back to back factory resets.if you still have issues, take it back.

Got the same issue. And factory reseting didn't do anything. I also tried to reset using the 3 buttons but it just says downloading for more than an hour! I really don't want to send it back and go trough the whole hassle. I just want a fix. I got this phone yesterday and I can't enjoy it... it only freezes when on standby for some time. The only way I can get it to work is by using the 3 buttons just like they guy above...

The downloading screen is just a bootloader screen for flashing rom while odin. If you isn't flashing rom, you don't need to wait for it since the phone is doing nothing.

Got a reboot once on PAW FW. Nothing after.

Yep had one yesterday after using bbc iplayer, tried to go back into iplayer from multitasking and it froze then went black . .used the volume and power for 7 secs and everything came back on . .
Hoping this is just software. .
Mine is UK version and got it on the 8th . .
Read that the S6 had similar problems

Anyone have a fix for this or do I need to take it back to Verizon? I'm in the US and have the same issue. It has happened to me multiple times.
I get automatic reboots as well as full screen lockup for 7-10 minutes where it reboots itself. Both seem to occur when I'm trying to do something immediately after doing something else. Examples are when I hit send on a text/tweet and then pull down the task bar while it's in the process of sending the text/tweet or when rotating screen to look at a picture in landscape mode in Facebook and immediately tapping the center of the screen to get rid of the text on the screen.
This has now happened every day I've had the phone (Friday, Saturday, and now Sunday). It's getting quite old. Any help would be appreciated before I take my phone back to Verizon tomorrow.

I haven't had any freezing, but I did have my first random reboot after 4 days of ownership while listening to music with it plugged into an aux cable..

Same.

i experienced the same issue, freezing up, i reset my phone and someone told to me to install an optimizer to help my phone by freezing up

I got the phone for 2 weeks now, yesterday my volume down and power button is unresponsive, press the power button for a few seconds but it wont respond. I have to hold volume and power buttons and press until a few more seconds and ir restarts, after rebooting it works ok.

Anyone have an update to this thread? Has anyone gotten a fix for this? Or should I just send my phone back and get another? Thanks for any help.

Just had another freeze and shutdown . .doesn't reboot but requires me too use power on and volume keys for 7 seconds to restart phone. .really hope its a software problem ..seems to happen on multi tasking

same for Galaxy S6
i have the Galaxy S6 and i have the same probleme, my phone keep freezing and some time rebooting, i try the safe more but still freezing, i delete the new installed app with no luck.
some other wesite say this is an apps crash that make the phone freezing, but i don't know.

Don't worry, Samsung will fix this with an update. Only had 1 reboot and it was on PAW fw.. now that I'm on pb4 it haven't happened once.

I have a verizon S7 edge, and have had multiple reboots on the phone, with no consistent pattern. It has done it while sitting on the bed untouched/unused. It remounts the SD card every time this happens. I'm really stunned there is no word from Samsung about this issue

I have had the same issue. I worked with a Samsung support member who was helpful in attempting to troubleshoot and log the issue. I ran my phone in safe mode for a few hours in hopes that it may have been an app I downloaded causing the freezing issue but unfortunately the phone froze again while in safe mode. According to Samsung, my next step is to go to a Samsung Experience shop in a Best Buy and have them do a software flash. I'm heading there today and if its successful I'll be sure to post about it.

samsung s7 edge freezing
i have a samsung galaxy edge 7 and it just froze on me too the screen froze and non of the buttons worked for the rest either so i popped the sim card n it unfroze.

Hey, this is software problem. Dont take it back phones. Maybe chrome, messenger freeze phone. Just send feedback Samsung. Samsung will fix this with update. Its not phone problem. Easy guys...

Nexus 4 screen freezes randomly, no reaction when touching.

Hi everyone!
So I just had this problem after I woke up yesterday. I googled a lot but only found similiar problems.
Let me tell you what happened chronologically:
After turning the phone on in the morning it started updating apps as if I was doing a firmware update: "updating apps 1 of 135" etc. Note that my nexus was already running on 5.1.1 and had the latest updates installed.
Now it randomly freezes the screen on whatever screen it was before it happens and it won't respond to any touch input. This can also happen when not using the phone, then it will freeze at the lockscreen (the time freezes with it so sometimes i can see at what time it froze). Also, it loses connection with Wi-Fi as i'm using Whatsapp Desktop when i'm on my laptop and it mentions me that my phone is not connected.
The only thing that "fixes" (temporarily) it is a reboot. Now sometimes, on the lockscreen, i can just hold the power button and the pop-up comes in to turn the phone of, which i can somehow just tap on an it responds by turning the phone off. But sometimes (less frequent than the latter mentioned) the pop-up doesn't come in and holding the power button for a few secs will do the trick.
I hope I informed you all enough and my end question is: does any of you know what this is? How i can fix it or what i can do to prevent it or anything as I am hopeless. (my G3 is up for reparation so this is my sisters old phone, i had a nexus 4 myself for 2 years before the G3).
Thanks in advance!!

The best way to test it is by reformat the OS.
I positively think that it will solve the problem.
Since the phone is no longer under warranty, I guess there is no harm to install custom rom on it. They are fast and stable too.
Hope this help. Good luck.

EXACT thing happened to me too. Backup your data and hard reset from recovery. This fixed it for me

Same problem here bro, but neither custom roms or factory reset helps.... Is there anyone who has successfully solved the problem ?

Then it's time to change the screen or phone. Looks like it is a hardware issue.

I agree, your screen needs to be replaced.

Frozen with screen on

My phone was getting severe lag, so I hit restart. It's been frozen with the screen on for over 6hrs now. Has anyone else had this? How do I prevent it? What can I do right now? I don't understand how my battery isn't dead.
I've tried - holding the power button for an extended period, pressing buttons in different combos, plugging it in, removing the SIM card.
My phone:
No root
No mods
Minimal apps
Tons of memory
Less than 2 months old
I've had random lag and freezes every few days. A reboot always fixes it. Thoughts?

Holding the power button for 45 seconds should shut it off.

I encountered same problem, even No 3rd party APP store's Apps installed, my phone gets latest system and app update.

It's done it 2 more times now.
If you hold the power + vol up + vol down for ten seconds it will reboot. I did a factory reset. This is unacceptable. I'll be attempting to exchange this phone.
Unrelated is that WiFi calling sometimes works, sometimes not. Sometimes it's in the settings, other times not. The known issue with the fingerprint sensor is crap too. Been an Android guy since the beginning. Never been so disappointed I bought a phone.
If anyone else figures what this is from please share.

sounds like you got a dud, I'd return it ASAP for another one. The QA on these is so sketchy.

There is nothing wrong with your phone dude

There is nothing wrong with your phone dude they all do that from time to time. It just happened to me (06/06/2018) a couple minutes ago...... press and hold the volume down and the power button for 10-15 seconds and it will reset the phone to the logo screen and you will be able to login. No need to wait until the battery dies.
